Yeah, seems to be a bug. According to XSLT spec, indentation shouldn't 
change HTML rendering behaviour. And MSXML does output <td><img> even 
when indenting. I'll file the bug.
The only option therefore seems to be disabling automatic indentation. 
You can keep your stylesheet's indentaion using xml:space attribute though:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" 
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
   <xsl:output method="html" version="4.0" indent="no"/>
   <xsl:template match="/">
     <html xml:space="preserve">
       <body>
         <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
           <tr>
             <td><img src="spacer.gif"/></td>
           </tr>
         </table>
       </body>
     </html>
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
